Since I am a programmer by trade (Delphi) I purchased
"Professional PHP Programming (Programmer to Programmer)"
It is a very good book for folks that already have programming
experience in any language.
I am quite familiar with the syntax as I have been modifying an XMBForum
for use on my site.
The help I needed on wasn't really as extensive as I first laid out.
I have a big part of the work done, just need to tie things together
and get access working.
I have someone that has volunteered to help and I am quite pleased with
him.
Thanks for the suggestions, however.
